    Manifestation

    The new thought philosophy of “Manifestation” used to pop up all over my TikTok.

    Currently

    I’m sitting in bed. I’ve been wanting to write on here & finally, here I am. I renewed my domain tonight. I wish I could say that I had just forgotten, but honestly I thought I was done writing. I’ve never really seen myself as talented. I didn’t have any real passions growing up so…

I usually believe I thrive working “under pressure” but somethings in life don’t necessarily have a particular deadline. Take this blog for example. It is nearly the end of January.
